Description

Photograph of a full front view of the Griffith Park Golf Course Clubhouse, ca.1940. The clubhouse can be seen at center with a covered walkway in front. Most of the building is one-story tall, except for the center portion, which appears to be two-stories. A man can be seen golfing on a green in front of the building, while other men stand near the clubhouse to observe the golfer. Dirt pathways can be seen in the foreground amongst young trees. Hills can be seen in the background.
